I'm not sure I understand what you want....

To me an "audio" CD/DVD is a format of CD/DVD readable by CD players
(music only). WAV files. An "iso" of an audio CD is not possible.

A "video" CD/DVD is a format of CD/DVD readable by DVD players. VOB
files. An "iso" of a video CD/DVD is possible.

A "data" CD/DVD is a format readable by data CD/DVD players. Any file
type. An  "iso" is possible.


You can use K3B (or the GNOME equivalent) to burn an "audio" DVD - it
will convert the mp3 to a wav and burn it to DVD in a single session.
But you can't put anything else on that DVD - and there's no guarantee
it'll play in a DVD player (some don't like burnt music CD/DVDs). Many
modern DVD players will play mp3 files on a data DVD/CD though (don't
need the "audio" CD format).

PS. It's also possible to add music tracks to a video DVD but I don't
know how to do it.



Kind regards
